    Fairly Simple Program Request

    Hi all,

    I've tried and failed to make a program for myself so now I've come for your help. I don't know whether requests are allowed or not, but I believe it's not a difficult program to code (I just don't know how) so I'm hoping someone here can help me out.

    I need a program that can scan a file and retrieve information at certain hex values, it then needs to be able to display them and have the option of copying it all onto the clipboard.

    I can show you a program that does a similar job to help get an idea of what it is like (the similar program isn't compatible and the coder is long gone).

    If you live in Australia, I'm willing to pay you for your time and work too. I'm just that desperate :santa:

    Thanks for reading and please let me know if you're interested

    Requests are allowed if you post them in the right section. I've moved this thread, so you don't have to think about it now, but please remember it in the future.

    I'm a little unsure about what you mean with the hex values. Do you want to scan a file, take every byte, and then represent it like a hex-value to the user?

    "retrieve information at certain hex values" - more likely means memory offsets... ie: your program loads at 1MB (0x400) and he wants the 5th bit 0x400 + 0x5.

    Why only Australia... going to hop on a jeep and drive over to their place and pay cash?

    v0id: Thanks for moving the topic

    About the hex thing, there's certain information stored at certain memory offsets and I just want the program to retrieve that information and output it all at once. It'll save me a lot of time from having to search through the hex every time. As I said, I can show you an example program to help you understand what I'm request.

    As for the money, I can only do a direct bank transfer and don't have paypal, credit card, etc.
